I was in a similar situation. A few weeks after I got hired, the project I was hired for was cancelled, so they “benched” me.

I spent three months being paid to do whatever I wanted, didn’t even need to go to the office. It was nice at first, but I felt useless and miserable after a couple of months.

This made me understand why some people keep working long after they have enough to retire.
